Stéphane Humbert Lucas 777 Crying of Evil is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Stéphane Humbert Lucas. Crying of Evil opens with Red Fruits, Spicy Notes, Violet, and Tuberose, settles into a heart of Leather, Sandalwood, and Rose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Patchouli, and Frankincense. Stéphane Humbert Lucas 777's Crying of Evil carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

A divisive, opulent monster that polarises opinions. Some find it a masterful, dark seducer; others, a burnt, overwhelming mess. Definitely not a blind buy - sample first to see if you can handle its intense gothic glamour.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage, coupled with dominant animalic and warm spicy accords, make it unsuitable for casual or office wear. It truly shines for intimate evening dates or formal events where its commanding presence is an asset.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with tart red berries and a powdery violet, sharpened by a burst of spice before a deep, animalic leather takes centre stage. As it settles, creamy sandalwood, rich amber, and smoky frankincense wrap around a dark patchouli, leaving a powerful, lingering trail.
